Is Jason coming back to General Hospital 2022

Is Steve Burton coming back to General Hospital, in 2022 as Jason Morgan — is a top question we keep hearing from fans. Many really miss his presence, especially as certain storylines cry out for his presence. Is there a chance the axed actor will return to GH on ABC? A huge new policy change just came out that could change everything.

In 2022, Jason Morgan’s name is mentioned often, but we still haven’t seen Steve Burton. So, will the actor come back to the ABC soap opera? First, there are no GH spoilers indicating Jason’s return. Despite recent name drops, there’s no whisper of a return.

Second, there’s a big reason why we do not think Steve Burton is coming back to General Hospital anytime soon. Why? Disney/ABC is sticking strongly by its vaccine mandate despite another lawsuit being filed against them over it in recent months.

UPDATE — over the weekend, it came out that Disney pulled the plug on vax mandates on almost all of its shows. While GH was not specifically mentioned, it was also not listed on the shows keeping the jab policy.

You can see from the below statement on their hiring website, that ABC/Disney was still stating the shot was required to work on their shows and in their parks. Then, two days after we published this, they reversed course.

They were still mandating it in all but 15 states. In California, it’s still required and that’s where GH tapes. Since losing his job at General Hospital, Steve Burton has moved past Jason and focused on his fitness business and podcast.

Meanwhile, Ingo Rademacher and two crew members sued Disney over the denial of religious exemption requests to the mandate. Now, though, everything has changed with this huge update to policies.

Will Jason Morgan Return to GH?

There are a ton of fans who’d love to see Steve back as Jason. And now that it looks like GH dropped the mandate, maybe Steve Burton will come back as Jason Morgan.

There’s still controversy ahead though. In addition to the lawsuit against firings at General Hospital, an actor from 9-1-1 is suing FOX over a similar case.

Plus, several Disney World ex-employees are suing. In New York, a judge recently ruled in favor of sanitation workers suing for reinstatement and back pay. This policy change likely won’t stop the litigation, though.

So far, Burton shows no signs of filing suit over his firing. And he said he’s love to come back to play Jason. Now, with the policy dropped, will the ABC soap reach out to him about bringing Stone Cold back from the dead?

What is Steve Burton Doing Now – Jason Morgan General Hospital Comeback Ahead?

Another big change in the General Hospital actor’s life is his pending divorce from his wife Sheree Gustin Burton. In January of this year, she revealed she was pregnant. Then, Burton stunned fans by refusing the congratulations because the child’s not his.

Six months later, he filed to divorce her. Now, Jason Morgan’s alter-ego keeps busy. He’s launched a new fitness training program and is on tour with best friend Bradford Anderson (AKA Spinelli). He’s also expanding his collection of tattoos. And he popped up on Days.

Let’s hope he’s doing great and that one day, Steve Burton coming back to General Hospital will be more than just a question in fans’ minds. For now, Jason Morgan remains just a memory for those he left behind in Port Charles on the ABC soap. But this update might be what brings him back!
